The Church of Scotland has confirmed that the building is no longer in use.

A spokesman said: "The former Nitshill building has not been used as a church for some time.

"Following Presbytery of Glasgow Mission Plan adjustments, the united congregation of Hillington Park and Priesthill Trinity has elected to retain the buildings at Hillington Park and Priesthill.

"Retaining three buildings would have been financially challenging.

"The proceeds of the sale will be retained by the congregation and invested in the remaining buildings to continue its mission to share the Good News of Jesus Christ in word and deed."

The property currently holds unrestricted Class 10 (non-residential institutions) planning consent under the Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) (Scotland) Order 1997.

With the appropriate permissions, it could also be converted for use as a theatre, cinema, entertainment venue, retail space, or even residential development.
